I intend on making myself titanium connecting rods. Don't tell me its a bad idea. I'm already set on doing it. BUT, I want input on the exact shape. I'm assuming that the structure has to be a little different to downplay brittleness in titanium. Porsche factory did titanium. Does anyone have one that could take a picture for me?

Hehe. The valve train is actually somewhat stock.
But you wouldn't know if I showed it to you. The springs he uses are NLA, so we're down to whats left in his private stock to use. Lifters are stock, weight reduced. The rockers have so many god damn holes drilled in them its not even funny. Ok it is. But thats what really goes into a race car. LOTS of time and effort. No room for half assing it. Most of the things that we do with the 356s I will be applying to a prototype IV engine. HIYA! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif) I JUST got pictures of porsche factory Ti rods. MADE by porsche factory for their 2.0L engine. This was stated by Bruce Anderson, who is an expert on 911s. Shape is dead nuts exactly the same. The factory Ti rods have a 100 hour limit. H-shaped. I'm ready to start blowing stuff up. I'll be getting to that ppoint here, soon. |
